Several police cars were parked outside a shopping mall in the downtown area of Kata Star, a cordon was set up in front of the gate, and the street was blocked by the crowd of onlookers.
"Everyone, please disperse. There is a bomb in the mall. For your own safety, please stay away from the scene."
A policeman held up a loudspeaker and kept giving warnings, but wherever he was facing, the crowd would only move and then surge forward again.
"Damn, what's going on in there? I've been shouting for hours and my throat is hoarse." The policeman put down the loudspeaker and asked the people around him.
"No progress. Dozens of hostages are on the top floor with bombs strapped to their bodies. The criminal is guarding the only entrance and will detonate the bombs on anyone who dares to go up."
Suddenly, a cry came from the crowd: "Sir, please save my daughter, she is still inside."
A woman rushed over here crying, but was stopped by the police who were maintaining order.
The anxious atmosphere spread, and others also shouted, "Mr. Police, are you guys able to do this? It's been hours, and there's been no movement."
"Yes, if that doesn't work, just notify the army and ask Colonel K to come."
"Colonel K won't do that. He will kill all the criminals and hostages together."
"The criminals may still have a few hostages. If Colonel K comes, it's hard to say..."
Several policemen heard the discussions and exchanged glances.
One of them put his fist to his mouth and whispered, "The police station has asked the military to send the King of Spades."
“Fuck!”
The policeman added: "But the military has issued an order not to allow him to harm a single hostage."
"Do you think he'll listen?"
"What else? Is there any other way? Just ask him to be less crazy."
As time passed, there was still no movement in the building, which was extremely tormenting.
From time to time, there were cries of pain from the crowd. They were all relatives of the hostages, and they were quickly helped away by others.
The pot-bellied sheriff stood next to the police car and was having an intense discussion with a crime expert. The walkie-talkie kept making sounds and the situation looked very serious.
The sheriff wiped the sweat off his sparse forehead and was about to ask how long it would take for the military to arrive when he heard the roar of a car engine in the distance.
At the end of the long street, a military off-road vehicle came speeding and stopped outside the long crowd of people.
"Colonel, the road is blocked by people watching the excitement. Let's get off the car and squeeze through."
After honking the horn several times without any effect, Kong Fei turned around and asked Lan Yu in the back seat helplessly.
Lan Yu sat in the back seat with her legs crossed, and she closed her eyes to rest the whole way.
Hearing Kong Fei's words, he opened his eyes slightly, glanced at the windshield from between the back seats, and then opened the back door.
Bang bang bang!
Three crisp gunshots.
The crowd turned and looked towards the source of the sound.
I saw a handsome young officer leaning his upper body out from the back seat of a black military vehicle, with a gun raised to the sky and wisps of white smoke coming out of it.
He raised his chin slightly, his facial features were impeccable, but meeting those meaningless black eyes made one feel cold all over.
"Colonel K! It's Colonel K!" someone screamed in fear.
Like Moses parting the sea, the crowd quickly dispersed to both sides, leaving wide streets.
Lan Yu put away the gun, leaned back in his chair, and said calmly: "Drive..."
Get off the bus and squeeze through? Impossible, that doesn't fit Colonel K's character at all.
As an actor with outstanding acting skills, he always keeps this in mind: even if the planet explodes, he must remain steady until the last second and keep his character standing in the explosion cloud.
Crowds of people crowded on both sides of the street, as quiet as chickens, with only an empty plastic bag rolling on the ground, making a rustling sound.
Kong Fei restarted the off-road vehicle and passed through the long street under the gaze of everyone, feeling extremely pressured.
Lan Yu rolled down the car window and looked towards the shopping mall not far away.
The shopping mall has only six floors in total, and I don’t know who designed it. It is flat, narrow at both ends and wide in the middle. There are long metal decorations extending from the outer wall every few meters, making it look like a cactus.
I guess someone was stuck on a thorn and the firefighters couldn't reach it, so they had to go themselves.
It's okay to rescue people from high altitudes, after all, they often use wires when filming. While thinking about it, he listened to the voice of the communicator in the headset.
"Colonel K, are you sure you don't need any other soldiers?"
"unnecessary……"
"Okay, so are you sure you won't hurt anyone?"
"Soldier, tell the general that if he is worried, he can send someone else. Also, please use respectful terms for me."
"Okay, so are you sure you won't hurt anyone?"
"May I have your name?"
"I'm sorry to bother you."
The operator disconnected the call.
Lan Yu retracted her gaze and prepared to close the car window. Her eyes slid across the crowd and stopped on a little boy.
The boy, about six or seven years old, stood at the front, his mother supporting his shoulders. His round eyes looked at him, and he looked very cute.
The omega nature was instantly aroused, and Lan Yu couldn't help but sigh in her heart: I really want to give birth to a baby like this...
Wow! The boy pursed his lips in fear and finally couldn't hold back his tears. His mother covered his mouth and picked him up.
In the distance, several policemen had quickly removed the roadblocks and made the approaching off-road vehicle stop next to the police car.
The car door opened and Lan Yu stepped out with her long legs.
"Colonel K." The sheriff, whose face was covered in sweat, saw Lan Yu as if he had seen a savior and hurried forward.
Lan Yu didn't exchange pleasantries with him, but walked straight into the mall, asking, "What's going on?"
"Colonel K, I'm relieved to see you. I was so anxious just now that the police couldn't get in—"
"I say, what's going on." Lan Yu stopped, turned around, and looked at the sheriff with his dark eyes.
The sheriff had a smile on his face, but he didn't react and just stood there frozen.
A smart policeman stepped forward and said loudly: "At present, we know that there is only one murderer, and he is in the lobby on the top floor. At least ten of the thirty-eight hostages have bombs tied to them."
hostage? bomb? Murderer?
Lan Yu froze for a moment.
However, he possesses the basic qualities of an excellent actor, and he can adjust his expression in less than a second.
If this moment was shown on the big screen, even the most eagle-eyed audience wouldn't be able to tell.
"Being stumped by a murderer, do you think the entire police station can't catch up with me alone?"
He spoke in a light tone, his eyes were full of arrogance, and after he finished speaking, he sneered from his nose.
Just like any ignorant villain in a movie, he is full of arrogance.
You can refute me angrily and then drive me away, and I promise not to hit anyone.
The police and the sheriff were stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, we really can't catch up with you, so we asked the military for help and sent you here."
Lan Yu gave them a thumbs up, then slowly turned downward and nodded twice.
The corners of his mouth were turned down, his eyelids were half raised, and he was full of disdain.
He acted out this scene before, and told the actors that seeing him like this made him so angry that he couldn't continue the play and he rolled up his sleeves to hit someone.
The sheriff's expression was indeed a little tense, and he raised his hand to wipe the greasy sweat off his fat face.
When he took his hand away, he smiled again, "Colonel K, you are really humorous."
Lan Yu's heart began to tremble, and she felt a little uncomfortable, but when she thought of the murderer and the bomb, she finally uttered two words softly, "Waste..."
He took another step back, folded his arms across his chest, and raised one corner of his mouth slightly, revealing an expression of appreciation.
As expected, the policeman's face turned red, he was breathing heavily, and his chest heaving rapidly.
The sheriff's hands, which were hanging by his sides, were clenched tightly, and the bulging blue veins could be seen under the thick layer of flesh.
Lan Yu turned her eyes away imperceptibly and said, "Go ahead and explode, explode, scold me harshly and then drive me away. Really, I will never hit anyone."
"He's really a waste..." The sheriff smiled bitterly.
There is no other way...
Lan Yu glanced at him and continued walking into the mall. The policeman was pushed by the sheriff and pouted at Lan Yu's back, so he had to follow her closely.
"Elevator?"
"There's a bomb installed on the elevator door. It can't be opened." The policeman's voice was still a little stiff.
"Safe passage?"
"He blocked it with something. I didn't dare to force the explosion. Even if there was a three-second gap, I was afraid he would detonate the bomb."
“Escalator?”
"He used several hostages with bombs tied to their bodies to block the escalator entrance, and hid behind with the remote control. We didn't dare to rush in by force."
Lan Yu was tall and had long legs, and she walked very fast, so the police had to jog to answer.
As soon as he walked into the hall, he suddenly stopped and turned around. The policeman couldn't stop his feet and almost bumped into him. He used all his strength to barely keep his balance.
Lan Yu lowered her eyes and looked at him. The policeman's pupils gradually dilated and his face twitched slightly uncontrollably.
"Officer, don't make me ask one question at a time," Lan Yu said.
"The top floor is surrounded by Acrylic glass, which is not only bulletproof but also resistant to ordinary explosions. It can only be blown open with an ion cannon. However, the ion cannon must be used at a distance of 20 meters so that the user will not be affected by the air wave. Therefore, it is not feasible to drop people from the rooftop to blast it. If a helicopter is used to blast it in the air, it is impossible for the people on the rooftop to rush in instantly. Even in just a few seconds, the criminals may detonate the hostage bomb."
The policeman finished the long sentence in one breath, took a breath, and waited with bated breath.
Lan Yu tapped her legs with her fingertips and asked calmly, "Since nothing works, what's the point of calling me here?"
Come on, I'm just an actor.
Since I came here, I have been working hard as the dean of studies. Can I just do the administration?
"We really have no other choice. Just like you said just now, we are useless. Being useless doesn't matter, but there are still 38 hostages being held up there, and their relatives are waiting outside." The policeman said this with a flushed face, and then turned his eyes away to look elsewhere.
Lan Yu noticed from the corner of her eye that there was a gleam of water in his eyes.
In the hall, policemen in bulletproof vests were running around, talking on walkie-talkies, and the scene was bustling. Some were lying in ambush at the stairs, looking up with guns raised.
Their faces were serious and anxious, but after seeing Lan Yu, they all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, as if a huge burden had been lifted off their shoulders.
Then they looked at each other nervously, their eyes filled with thousands of words.
"Xiao Fen, you are trying to kill Mom. If something happens to you, how can Mom go on living..." The crying of the middle-aged woman in the distance could be faintly heard.
The surroundings became quiet and everyone looked at Lan Yu.
He gently tugged at his trouser legs and said in a still cold tone: "Arrange a helicopter and an ion cannon for me."
The policeman turned around suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he shouted excitedly: "Yes, sir..."
Lan Yu sighed in her heart and thought, forget it, just treat it as making a war movie.
